Robert had so many happy moments to share with others including gardening, cooking for others, his pets, skiing, or just being outdoors. And let all of those memories give all of us comfort.

On behalf of the McCloskey family - neighbors and friends of the Busa clan for many years on Ainsley St. - I extend our heartfelt sympathies to the Busa family. Robert ( as he was known to us) was full of life and energy. We shared many laughs and played hard. He was intense and a good person...he had your back (as we say in Dorchester). I have fond memories of Robert, as I do for all of the Busa family. Rest in Peace, my friend. https://youtu.be/9xfgxWAIcxQ

My heartfelt condolences to the Busa family. Robert was a great friend to grow up with, funny and adventurous. Shooting arrows and his BB gun at targets in his yard. Once he was playing his guitar and he sang and played some lyrics to a Van Halen song I was unfamiliar with and I asked him if he wrote it. He laughed and told me he did. I think of him and smile every time that song comes on the radio.

My heartfelt condolences to the Busa Family.
Robert was a great friend to have growing up. I remember him shooting his BB gun or bow and arrows at targets in his yard. Raising chickens in the back yard. He had a great sense of humor. I remember hanging out with him this one time, we were teenagers. He had his guitar and he played and sang some lyrics to a Van Halen song I was unfamiliar with, so I asked him if he had written it. He laughed and said he did. I still think of him and smile every time it plays on the radio.
